Writers Ben Acker and Ben Blacker continue the adventures of Flash Gordon in a story drawn by Lee Ferguson in "King: Flash Gordon" #1, which kicks off Dynamite's 100th anniversary celebration of King Features Syndicate.

"Captain Victory and the Galactic Rangers" #1 feels like a modern-day rediscovery of a classic Kirby concept, which is exactly what it is, courtesy of writer Joe Casey and artists Nathan Fox, Jim Rugg and Ulises Farinas.

In "Harbinger" #15 by Joshua Dysart and Barry Kitson, the Renegades recover from fighting in the Harbinger Wars by giving themselves a "Perfect Day," that concludes with a psychologically and physically intense cliffhanger.

"Archer & Armstrong" #12 continues the duo's adventures in the Faraway, but with dinosaurs, aliens, time-displaced cults, a sibling assassin and General Redacted, it feels like Fred Van Lente and Pere Perez crammed in too much.

"The Boys" #71 is Billy Butcher's last stand, last con and his last clash and heart-to-heart with Wee Hughie, one last aria by before the curtain, a final all-out reckoning courtesy of Garth Ennis and Russ Braun, and it's a good one.

"Happy!" #1 by Grant Morrison and Darick Robertson reads like weakened Mark Millar or Garth Ennis until the arrival of titular character Happy the Horse, upon which the comic reveals its true colors of perky insanity and subtle satire.

Steve Darnall, Alex Ross and Jonathan Lau revive Pete Morisi's "Peter Cannon: Thunderbolt" at Dynamite Entertainment, but in the process stand to leave out what made the original property entertaining.
